If you’re new to Mahjongg games, it’s quick to get up and running. To begin playing Mahjongg Candy Cane start matching tiles on the top layers and edges of the board. These are the most accessible and will help unlock more tiles as you progress. Avoid matching tiles that don’t open up new possibilities, as that can lead to you getting stuck with no moves!   Did you find this post helpful? Give it a kudo to let us know—it helps others discover valuable content too.

I realize this is a video game, and in no way does it reflect casino play, and at times it’s laughable how it’s skewed …. But for at least here, out of curiosity, how do you handle your own card play with a 12 showing against a dealer’s 10 upcard?   

Why does  the  game  just suddenly end sometimes even when  you reach the  level score  required?  When I hit 200,000,000 it  just ended.  I have been  higher  than  that.  It has  done  this  several  times.

I have tried to enter many times today. The game was working for a while, but has returned to its "bad request" setting. Cannot get in at all. PLEASE fix it!

 I regularly play games on this site, and about half the time, I do not receive the points for playing Codeword. Occasionally other games don't give me points, but Codeword is the worst. In the past, I would just contact by chat and get my missing points. But today I was informed that the policy has changed, and they are no longer awarding points that are missing for game play. To be clear, I am always logged in, since I also get points for a couple of other games played before and after Codeword. I have tried other browsers, cleared my cache - same result. I refuse to clear my cookies, since all that does is delete my game playing history.  I have been a member for over 20 years, and am renewed for another 10, but at this point, the only real benefit I use is the points for sweepstakes entries, which I have never won! So, really, what is the point? That money could be used somewhere else that benefits me more.

In Crosswordle, you swap letters by selecting two tiles in a row: On desktop: Click the first letter you want to move — it will turn blue to show it’s selected. Click the second letter you want to swap with. The two letters will switch places. On mobile/tablet: Tap the first letter (it turns blue). Tap the second letter to complete the swap.   If you change your mind after selecting the first letter, just click/tap it again to cancel the selection and turn it back to normal. Also, any green letters are locked in place and can’t be swapped.   Found this tip helpful?  Give it a kudo to let us know—it helps others discover valuable content too.
